Solar Industry Statement on Department of Commerce Response on AD/CVD Petition

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The following is a statement from Abigail Ross Hopper, president and CEO at the Solar Energy Industries Association.

“We are disappointed that Commerce did not dismiss these meritless petitions outright. However, the detail and nature of the questions Commerce asked the anonymous petitioners clearly indicates that the petitioners have produced a filing largely devoid of the information the department needs to assess whether to initiate this case. We believe that when and if the petitioners amend their original submission, it will become abundantly clear that they have no case for circumvention.”
